In bash, a comparison inside "[["/"]]" is lexicographic not numeric?
This isn't what I expected.
Which part of the documentation would set me straight? If someone
could quote the fine manual, that would be great.
$ if [[ 2000 > 200 ]]; then echo pass; else echo wierd; fi
pass
$ if [[ 1000 > 200 ]]; then echo pass; else echo wierd; fi
wierd
$ set | grep BASH_VERSION
BASH_VERSION='3.2.51(24)-release'
Thanks,
John R.
